Sophie & Eeyore on Canada Day. Sophie would rather be eating.
This year we decided to give the Canada Day festivities down at Fort Whoop Up a try. What a great family event! Daniel especially enjoyed the wagon rides & the animals. He looked for that goat every time we were down looking at a different part of the fort. By the end of the afternoon, we were ready to sit down with a few hot dogs & suddenly the table were turned- the goat came straight for Daniel. At first Daniel was excited the goat was coming over, but when we told him that the goat wanted to eat his hot dog, Daniel replied, "No he doesn't" and gave the goat a frown. Undeterred, the goat went as far as to jump up on the closest bench and reach for Daniel's dog. I had to lead the beast away by the collar & horn repeatedly before Daniel had a chance to finish the rest of his hot dog.
On our way home from the fort, we stopped for ice cream at the Marble Slab & ran into friends. We organized an impromtu Canada Day supper at our house followed by mini-trampoline building. Even thought the photo of Daniel trying out his new trampoline is a bit blurry, I think you can still make out his enormous grin. A good day had by all!
